If we want our Masters document verify. Is it necessary to give Bachelor also verify and will it effect the processing time of Masters degree. I just gave masters document for ECA and potocopy of Bachelors

1) My timeline (BBA from SMU-DE):

Application delivered to IQAS: 22nd March 2018
Transcript delivered to IQAS: 28th March 2018

1st AOR (application received): 01st May 2018
2nd AOR (academic documents received): 05th May 2018

ECA awaited.

I see a lot of people before me are waiting for ECA. I have gone through the thread and people have confirmed that IQAS recognises SMU-DE, however, I have a concern:

I have done BBA from SMU-DE, will IQAS recognise it as Bachelors (three years) equivalent to Canadian bachelors.

2) At what stage the age of primary applicant will be considered; at the time of submitting the express entry application or when ITA is received?

Would appreciate a response.

My timeline - Bachelors - 4 Yrs - MBA - 2 Yrs:
Application received by IQAS :: 28 Feb 2018
Academic documents received by IQAS :: 19 March 2018
1st AOR (Application Received) :: 3 April 2018
2nd AOR (Transcript Received) :: 7 May 2018
Awaiting ECA

Wife's timeline (Bachelors - 4 Yrs):
Application received by IQAS :: 28 Feb 2018
Academic documents received by IQAS :: 19 March 2018
1st AOR (Application Received) :: 3 April 2018
2nd AOR (Transcript Received) :: 26 April 2018
Awaiting ECA

Application for both myself and wife was sent in one package
Transcripts for myself and wife were sent in one package (3 sealed envelopes from University)

Wife received her 2nd AOR on 26th April, however I had to follow up with IQAS on the phone multiple times to get my AOR. Details below:

  1. At first they told me i should wait atleast a week as it is normal
  2. I followed up after 1 week and they told me they have received my documents also on 26th April (however they didnt sent an AOR)
  3. On my third follow up, the agent on the phone said it appears they are waiting for more educational credentials as they have only received my Bachelors and Masters Degree. When I confirmed to her these are the only two documents I have sent, she kept me on hold for 3-4 minutes and said I should receive an AOR soon - within 10 minutes I received my 2nd AOR

Hope this helps someone in similar situation
